A dinner by Ferran Adria fetched $28,000 at a Hong Kong auction today. Not for charity, just a dinner for four people. The money will go to the elBulli Foundation, described as “a project set up by Adria and business partner Juli Soler, which will turn [elBulli] into an experimental center looking at the process of culinary innovation and creativity.” Quite the world we live in.
